Literacy is the gateway to a student's success.
LITERACY CONCENTRATION CURRICULUM
The Literacy degree concentration is designed for K-12 educators who wish to delve deeper into the importance of reading and writing for all students to be successful. Current research and theory are translated into practice with each and every class. Teachers will be coached to implement these literacy program strategies and join colleagues on-line to critique the outcome. Additionally, assessment in literacy will be linked to next steps in connecting data to teaching practice. Study skills and literacy interventions that can be used within the content area will be explored. In short, the basic premise of this concentration is that literacy skills are central for all students to succeed.
